Alice Cooper

Elton John

British music legend Elton John is no stranger to Israel – he’s delighted his fans by playing here 3 times before. His 26 May concert in Ganei Yehoshua – Park Hayarkon in Tel Aviv is sure to be a sold-out success. In the past, he has stood up to extremists who lobbied him to boycott his Israeli concert, saying “”Musicians spread love and peace, and bring people together. That’s what we do. We don’t cherry-pick our conscience.” Which makes us love him even more.

Avicii

Tim Bergling, better known by his stage name Avicii – the massive Swedish electronic musician, DJ, remixer and record producer – is heading to Rishon Lezion’s Live Park. He’s been here plenty of times before – check out the amazing energy at this concert in Israel in 2012:


Sia

Craig David
